CasioMen's MDV106-1AV 200 M WR Black Dive Watch (MDV106-1A)

I was surprised by the quality (quite heavy and solid), style and (good) size of the watch. It’s an absolute bargain for a diver watch with 200m water resistance. I have other similar but much more expensive diver watches and this takes some beating.

I’m a watch collector my favourite watches are divers. I have 21 Invicta automatic pro divers which are all fantastic budget watches which have not let me down over the years! Also have a few other more expensive other brands! Because this one is quartz it put me off buying it for a long time, but I’m glad I did so! The price was cheaper than any of my other divers and the colour way I liked. It looked big and bold to read and was very accurate one or two seconds a month with my one! It’s certainly be accurate with in 15 seconds a month at most with yours! So it’s a pick up and go watch! It has a screw down crown like all dive watches have. WARNING! You have to remember to screw down the crown after setting the time or date to keep out the water which is up to 200m It’s a big watch though not very thick, those with under 7 inch wrist it will look oversized! The only other thing is that the lume doesn’t last long only a few short minutes! For the price you get a well made watch.

The best affordable dive watch money can buy! The rubber strap is a beautiful design, very rugged and in good light the black even sparkles, inside is Casio's very reliable 2784 quartz movement that takes a SR626SW battery if ever you need to replace, the dial has a fantastic sunburst effect and dances in the light and the contrasting colours are gorgeous. Without a doubt my favourite watch that Casio has made and unlike the newer MDV107 this has the iconic marlin in the dial and caseback, the lume is fantastic with a pip at the 12 mark and the rotating bezel has a nice feel to it, screw down crown with hacking movement means you can precisely adjust time, Great value and was also delivered a few days earlier than planned! 10/10

Amazing item. It’s 44mm but doesn’t wear that big at all. It’s more like a 41mm watch in size. It’s been faultless, looks great, survived 2 weeks submerged in a pool/sea in Turkey for 10 hrs/day. It look far more expensive than its real cost and I’m so impressed.The strap is a bit nasty and although I didn’t mind the look of it, it eventually caused a nasty rash so I had to bin it. The watch looks fab with a 22mm NATO strap and I can’t recommend it highly enough.I bought it as a cheap holiday watch to wear in the water but still wear it regularly. It’s not scratched in 8 months, has kept perfect time having a quartz movement and is clear and easy to read.The lume isn’t great but then for £44 what do you expect.It tells the time the same as a watch 200x its price and I’m not scared of losing it.Love it. Fantastic purchase. Don’t worry about it bei g too big. Get one with the Marlin as they look much nicer.

Nice looking 'marlin' divers watch. Quite big which appeals to me with a 7" plus wrist, but bear in mind for slimmer wrists. Usual Casio quality and every watch collector should have a Casio even if you're into luxury watches. You can't beat them for everyday drivers (I own quite a few G-Shocks). The strap is a bit basic as expected,but I swapped it out for a nicer one I had, but would look good with a NATO. Took a while to arrive as an import but worth waiting for.

Nice looking watch and something of an icon in watch collector circles (this features quite a bit on YouTube). It looks more expensive than it is. The strap is OK, not the best but could easily be changed.I had to return it as at 44mm its just a bit to big for my 6.6 inch wrist. Shame Casio don't do a 40mm version, which would be perfect.

I have this watch in blue and black as at £50 buying them is practically guilt free. Both are stunning and made perfectly. The bezel action is as good as it gets. Alignment is perfect on both. The build quality is better than my semi is and citizen diver watchers. I am late to the party with these watches as I never liked the look of them in pictures. However they actually look and feel amazing. Many complain about the straps but I find them comfortable and durable as well as suiting the watch perfectly. I cannot find a fault with them and I have not ruled out purchasing more. Time keeping is excellent, clarity is good and the lume is ok. I would love a sapphire crystal version but then again that defies the character of what these watches are about. On another note I am a sucker for a red watch and would love Casio tio make a version…I can only dream!!

Absolutely gutted, as I had to send this back, simply because it was just too big for my wrist. I'm really disappointed, as it was a super nice looking watch. I could not believe what it cost, as it looks a lot more expensive and the green bezel (in my case) really popped. It is a really nice quality item; weighty and beautifully balanced. If you have a decent sized wrist then don't hesitate to purchase one of these dive watches. They are a total no-brainer and will NOT disappoint. Absolutely gutted to have a smaller 'than average' wrist!!
